Therapy With Doxycycline and Hydroxychloroquine Enables Surgical Excision of Ulcerated Cutaneous Granulomas in a Patient With Ataxia Telangiectasia

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rubella virus vaccine strain can cause granulomas in patients with inborn errors of immunity that may evolve into chronic, recalcitrant ulcers. This report details treatment of ulcerated rubella granulomas in a patient with ataxia telangiectasia with doxycycline and hydroxychloroquine resulting in partial ulcer healing within 4 weeks ...

Infection Complications in Pediatric Patients With Inborn Errors of Immunity After Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation: A Chinese Single‐Center Study

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study reveals that infections are highly prevalent in pediatric IEI patients after umbilical cord blood transplantation, with early‐stage infections and bloodstream infections strongly associated with poorer survival. These findings advocate for risk‐stratified surveillance and preemptive strategies in high‐risk subgroups.

The Role of Belatacept‐Use and Senescence on Infectious and Mortality Complications After Kidney Transplantation

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Studies evaluating the incidence of infections after belatacept as a substitute for calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) or antimetabolite in kidney transplant (KT) yielded conflicting results. We compared infectious outcomes after belatacept‐use to no belatacept‐use in KT recipients.
